Ladies and gentleman, Dwayne Haskins is getting his first chance to start an NFL game on Thursday.
Wait, what’s that? Oh, it’s a preseason game? Oh. Okay. That’s fi– Wait. It’s the fourth preseason game?
Alright. You know what? That’s still cool.
Haskins is going to start and get extensive action in the preseason finale for the Redskins. Of course, it’s important not to read into this decision at all. Teams almost always play their backups and depth options exclusively in the fourth preseason game. Haskins currently looks like the Redskins’ No. 2 quarterback pending the health of Colt McCoy.
